I'm working on a charitable project around animal adoption in the UK: https://www.adoptanimals.io/

Other aggregators exist, but often have commercial ties, paid listings, and such. We're building something to give shelters a really nice website, and native apps, to list their animals, as a free public service :)

I'm working on the v2 of the UX/UI for my side-project https://batgrowth.com Basically, the site is just a listing of content creators that accept tips in the form of Basic Attention Token sent through the Brave browser I'm pretty happy with the project and the site is getting some decent traffic ( https://simpleanalytics.com/batgrowth.com ), but I think the current UI/UX is not good enough

Looks good!

working on my crippling depression / ADHD, unemployed (i don't want to work anymore in anything) 6 months , 0 productivity. learned a lot of category theory, functional programming and c++ tho.

If you learned a lot of category theory, functional programming and C++ then your productivity was not zero.

I've been working on the site for Overpowered Mats, day in and day out. It's been a challenge but I'm very happy that I was able to work on such a cool idea. The "Custom Mat Designer" for it is going to be soooo cool. We're super close! There will be room for improvement when the project is launched, for sure, so hang tight! Feel free to check it out and let me know if there's any improvement that could be made or bugs to fix! You can pre-order now, by the way.

Maintaining some marginally-novel open-source projects, and looking for a new side-project idea. I burned out and ended up shutting down my previous side-project the other day; just taking a break before starting up a new one.

Been working on a piece of 2D animation/vector editing software called FlowBetween for a while now:

https://flowbetween.app

Seemed like a good way to combine my interest in building software with my other interest in creating art.

I've been spinning off the various components needed to build it as separate rust crates: interesting ones are flo_curves, desync and flo_binding.
